My singer girlfriend is super fierce.

After the New Year's Day movie-watching peak, the box office growth rate of movies released during the same period has a relatively obvious downward trend. After all, the main consumer groups should go to work and go to school.

But what is surprising is that the single-day box office decline of "Big Fish and Begonia" is the smallest, and it seems to be "catching up" on the total box office list.

On January 10, the cumulative box office of "Big Fish and Begonia" officially exceeded 1 billion yuan, which once again caused a sensation on the entire network.

The first domestically produced animated film in China to break 1 billion yuan in box office!

Seeing this hot search, many viewers who were not interested in animation could not help but walk into the cinema.

People have a curiosity. Before, you could resist saying how beautiful the pictures are and how good the music is, but just for the title of "first", you have to watch it...

The hot discussion about "Big Fish and Begonia" on the Internet is still going on, but Ye Zhiqiu has already started a new job.

On the one hand, he attended the wrap-up party of the crew of "Dying to Survive". In fact, the crew had finished filming for half a month, but he had not been able to find time, so this time he made up for it.

On the other hand, the broadcast time of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has also been confirmed. It will be officially released on Huahai Satellite TV and Tencent Video on January 18, with two episodes broadcast every Wednesday and Thursday, and one episode broadcast on Friday and Saturday.

Just when Ye Zhiqiu was busy with the promotional activities of the "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" crew, suddenly a bad news came.

—— Qin Dewen passed away!

This writer, nationalist, educator... erudite and respected old man passed away at the age of 50.

As soon as this news came out, the whole country was shocked and immediately became the focus of the whole people.

The first reaction of the people who didn't know was-it turns out that Mr. Qin is still alive... No, he just died now?

This is not disrespect to the master, but many people have the impression that there are articles written by Qin Dewen in their elementary school textbooks. Now that his son is about to go to elementary school, and Qin Dewen is usually low-key and rarely appears in front of the media, it is not surprising that some people have such thoughts.

After the surprise, there is great regret, especially after learning about the talent and life of this old man through media reports.

Ye Zhiqiu received a call after the promotion of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" ended. The caller was Qin Yongbo.

On the phone, Qin Yongbo said in a low voice: "Mr. Ye, my father died in his sleep at 10:12 today. He died peacefully."

"My father's memorial service will be held on the 13th. You are my father's good friend. I hope you can come to attend it then."

Ye Zhiqiu was silent for a moment and agreed.

"Okay, I am sorry."

......

After receiving the call, Ye Zhiqiu canceled his activities for the next two days and set off for Shangjing with Yu Caiwei.

Qin Dewen reminded his family many times before his death that his funeral ceremony should be simple, so the memorial service only invited relatives, friends and people who were close to him during his lifetime.

Even so, many people from the literary and business circles, as well as senior officials and politicians, came to attend the memorial service.

Some were invited by Qin Yongbo's call, and some were too prominent to refuse others' kindness...Ye Zhiqiu and Yu Zhengdao of the Yu family were on the list of invitees.

Babaoshan Cemetery is located to the west of Shangjing, on the southern foot of Babaoshan, where Qin Dewen's body farewell ceremony and memorial service were held.

On January 13, Ye Zhiqiu, Yu Caiwei and Yu Zhengdao, dressed in black, stood in the farewell hall of the cemetery, and like more than a hundred guests, they all looked sad.

"When my father was alive, he was gentle, respectful, kind, and lenient. He often taught the younger generation to behave well and do good deeds..."

When Qin Yongbo was reading the eulogy on the stage, he shed tears and his voice trembled halfway through. It can be said that he was crying and everyone present felt the same way and was very sad.

Offstage, Yu Caiwei's eyes were slightly red. She took Ye Zhiqiu's hand and leaned towards him.

Ye Zhiqiu looked down and found that the pair of eyes were full of tears, as if they were about to fall in the next moment.

It was the first time that Ye Zhiqiu saw Yu Caiwei so fragile. He quickly took out his handkerchief and handed it to her, and asked softly: "What's wrong? Did you remember something sad?"

Yu Caiwei sniffed and whispered: "I remembered my grandma. She was the best to me when she was alive..."

Ye Zhiqiu nodded and tightened his hand. Yu Caiwei leaned closer and hugged Ye Zhiqiu's whole arm.

On the side, Yu Zhengdao glanced at the two of them and said nothing.

After Qin Yongbo finished reading the eulogy, the people in the audience lined up to present flowers on the stage to express their condolences, and then the guests gave eulogies.

Due to the large number of visiting guests, it was naturally impossible to read eulogies one by one, so only Qin De was arranged.Guests who had a close relationship with Qin Dewen or had a special status came on stage.

Soon after, when the previous guests finished speaking and it was the last guest's turn, the emcee of the memorial service said, "Please invite Mr. Ye Zhiqiu to give a eulogy."

When Yu Caiwei heard Ye Zhiqiu's name being called, she let go of the arm of the person next to her. Ye Zhiqiu gently shook his hand back and walked towards the stage with a calm face.

Ye Zhiqiu first bowed to Qin Dewen's spirit platform, then turned around and stood in front of the microphone facing the audience.

Under the gaze of the crowd, Ye Zhiqiu took a deep breath and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Mr. Qin and I first met through an ancient poem, and we became close friends because of the poem."

"When Mr. Qin was seriously ill, I visited him in the hospital several times. At that time, I could not see the pain and torture of the disease on him. There was only an open-minded old man sitting in front of the bed and talking to me enthusiastically."

"I remember that I was admitted to the hospital again not long ago. We had a long talk. When I left, I still had the same dream. I hoped that Mr. Qin could turn the danger into safety. When spring comes, we can sit together again and talk about poetry, literature, and the eternal sorrow together."

"However, this time my hope was dashed. Mr. Qin left us after all, forever and ever."

In Ye Zhiqiu's low voice, many guests who had calmed down a little were filled with grief again.

"Just now, Mr. Qin gave a speech, recalling the various deeds of Mr. Qin during his lifetime. It was very touching, and I felt the same way."

Speaking of this, Ye Zhiqiu paused and said in a hoarse voice: "When people are young, they always yearn for distant places in order to pursue their dreams. But after half a lifetime of wandering, they always miss their hometown and their parents at home. When people reach middle age, when they return to the familiar and unfamiliar old house, they call out "Dad, Mom" ​​when they enter the door, and someone responds, that is happiness..."

"The ancients said, "Parents are still alive, do not travel far away." It is often said that "Trees want to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and children want to support their parents but their parents are not waiting." They are all reminding us to be filial as early as possible and cherish the people in front of us. As the saying goes, parents are still alive, and life still has a place to go..."

At this time, Ye Zhiqiu thought of his parents in his previous life. He didn't know how they were doing now, and he was also in tears and choked with sobs.

"With parents gone, life is just a journey home..."

After the words fell, all the guests were filled with grief, some of them were holding onto their loved ones, and they were already crying.

Offstage, Yu Caiwei looked at the figure on the stage with tears in her eyes, covering her mouth and sobbing.
